BEAUTY
GARNIER has given its BB Cream, £4.49, Superdrug, a makeover.
Lightweight and easy to blend, it provides natural coverage and comes in four formulations for different skin types. It’s boosted its eco credentials too – the new tube contains 49 per cent less plastic and the box is completely recyclable.

CELEBRITY chef Gino D’Acampo has launched a range of delicious ready meals that means you can whip up an Italian feast in no time at all.
Available in Asda, the range contains everything from lasagne and risotto to garlic bread and ice cream. Our favourite is the aubergine parmigiana, £4.

After you have found your word, you spend the game trying to guess your opponent’s using hints and tricks. It costs £11.99 at explodingkittens.com
